For mental health professionals, this percentage increases to as much as 50 percent!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That is a staggering number.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To maximize your billings and capacity you want to make it really simple for customers to engage with you.   The best practice is to remind your patients that an appointment has been scheduled, send them a couple of reminders prior to the appointment, and then send a follow-up reminder to be sure they schedule their next appointment.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Automated Scheduling &amp; Reminders for Therapists\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IvpGsxDdv0w?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Texting is the simplest asynchronous way to communicate with your patients.
